I Made the World a Little Safer!

In a previous article, I wrote about how We Were Sent Home From the Hospital with Instructions that Could Have Killed Our Son. I informed the hospital of my experience and sent them my article. I'm happy to report they changed their process! I like to think that I made the world a better place […]
